Life as an International Student in Canada 🇨🇦

[@menard_dee7832]

Same here, I was 21 when I came here as an international student, and since then, I matured a lot. Coming here to Canada changed me mentally, and discovered other capabilities which I never thought I'm capable of. #FilipinoInternationalStudent

I agree with you 100%. I think that is an important point that most students need to understand. Thank you for sharing your experience
